The best definition of tyranny from the passage on the need for the U.S. government to be strong is B.)cruel and oppressive government or rule.

<h3>Why was there a need for a strong central government?</h3>

A strong central government would allow for the United States to be more united and to maintain national unity despite the fact that the nation is so large.

However, there is a need for the central government not to be so powerful that it becomes tyrannical and forms a cruel government where the people are oppressed.

To to this, the CONSTITUTION included a separation of powers principle both between the branches of the federal government, but also between the state and federal governments.

In conclusion, option B is correct.

What does Winston write in his diary as he recalls the Two Minutes Hate? Book:1984
anygoal [31]

Answer: Winston writes about the loss of individuality.

Explanation:

Winston's interpretation is a great parallel to today's modern world. Winston writes about a man, a world plunged into hatred, points out that our individuality has disappeared, that our every movement is being followed around Big Brother. In the Winston diary, he recalls a two-minute hatred, he sees Emmanuel Goldstein as the enemy system. In a moment of hatred, Winston realizes that he hates Big Brother. Winston begins to glorify freedom in all its forms, freedom of the media, opinions, freedom of man.

Winston's thoughts, expressed in "two minutes of hatred," perfectly capture the real-world picture of an individual lost, missing, drowning in mass. The lesson we can draw from his diaries is that every individual is important. Every opinion is important and Winston encourages us to think, Winston wants to tell us that the views of the masses do not necessarily have to be true and moral.

S Based on what you know about how the Nazi-Soviet Nonaggression Pact ended, in what ways is this cartoon prophetic, or predicti
Fudgin [204]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, you forgot to attach the cartoon. Without the cartoon, we do not know its content, just you know it.

However, trying to help you with something, we can comment on the following.

Based on what we know about how the Nazi-Soviet Nonaggression Pact ended, some cartoons of the time depicted the probable consequences of the ending of this pact. And indeed, they were prophetic. Europe was on the brink of another major war.

Joseph Stalin and Adolph Hitler signed a non-aggression pact on August 23, 1939. In the so-called German-Soviet Nonaggression Pact, both countries agreed not to take any military aggression or action against each other for a period of 10 years. The pact only lasted two years because, in 1941, Hitler invaded the Soviet Union.
